Bed, Bath & Beyond flees California, tells the world exactly why

Monica Showalter Bed, Bath & Beyond flees California, tells the world exactly why

 . . . "As they ignore, mock, and abuse businesses that are fleeing, the chief of Bed & Bath knew that the only avenue left was to state, Trump-like, the raw hard reality of why businesses such as his, and many others, are fleeing the horribly governed blue state."

   . . . "It follows from the statement last month issued by In-N-Out Burger's CEO, Lynsi Snyder, who pretty much said the same thing more informally.

"According to the New York Times:

Lynsi Snyder, the chief executive of In-N-Out Burger, has announced that she plans to move her family to Tennessee as the fast-food chain establishes a corporate office there, drawing a backlash in California, where her grandfather founded the company nearly 80 years ago.

“I’m actually moving out there,” Ms. Snyder, who was raised in Northern California, said on “Relatable,” a faith-based podcast that discusses culture, news and politics from a conservative Christian perspective. (In-N-Out prints Bible verses in small print on its packaging.)

“There are a lot of great things about California, but raising a family is not easy here,” Ms. Snyder, 43, said in the episode released on Friday. “Doing business is not easy here.”

"Unlike Lynsi, Bed & Bath's top executive wasn't gentle at all. Lemonis understood that California's ruling legislators need to be hit over the head with hard realities for any chance of getting them to listen, which in fact is very low. Notice from the New York Times account that Lynsi was trolled by anonymous trolls on the internet for stating she wanted to leave, (which sounds pretty manufactured actually), but we know that companies pulling up stakes have been mocked and abused for leaving the state. Recall how legislative powerbroker Lorena Fletcher bellowed the 'f' word at Elon Musk for moving his Tesla headquarters to Texas out of frustration at California's policies. He replied "message received" and left it at that.

"This CEO is different. He lays it right out -- the monster taxes, the monster regulations, the hostile climate for hiring. He said it was so bad he wasn't going to open any stores in California."...

Newsom: it's different when Democrats do it 

. . . "Newsom is among the most greasy, slippery politicians in America, and that’s saying something. Fortunately, he’s not nearly as smart as imagines and recently gave away the illegal immigration game." . . .
